H%- Ihe Fall T*rm of the Superior
ourt of ibis couuty is now in session,
i ' s Judge Parrott presiding.—
Many eminent gentlemen of the pro
fession are i n attendance, among
whom we are pleased to recognize
Messrs. N ’shit and Jackson of Macon,
and the Hon. Wm. Dougherty, besides
the Hon. J. W. H. Underwood, Dub-
Johnston, Dodson aud Graham, as
also the Hon. G. D. Rice and General
Clanton from Alabama. The Court
room on yesterday and the day before
Wus crowded with a large audience
drawn by the argument of the distin
guished Counsel iu the case of the
Stute of Alabama, vs. the Alabama &
Chattanooga Railroad Company, J. C.
Stanton and others; a bill filed for In
junction, and the appointment of a
Receiver, Ac. It will be recollected
th.kt by Act of the Leg Is) t ure of this
State, the State of Alabama was au
thorized, on certain conditions, to run
the Alabama k Chattanooga Road
through the county of Dade, in the
the State of Georgia, and that the
Georgia also endorsed bonds
at the rate of SB,OOO per. mile in fur
therauce of the object reserving to her
self ou certain contingencies the right
lo seize that portion of the'roud lying
in Dade, and appropriate it by sale or
otherwise to the security of her en
dorsement. In pursuance of this ob
ject the seizures have been made under
a proclamation of Governor Bullock,
of all that portion of the road, togeth
er with three engines aud thirty-four
cars, together with all the fixtures and
property of the road lying in said
county of Dade, thus causing a com
plete blockade to all the operations of
the road. Iu addition to this, a mul
titude of fi fas at the instance of pri
vate creditors have beeu levied upon
the same, by the Sheriff of Dade coun- i
ty, thus increasing the difficulties sur
rounding this unfortunate railroad en
terprise.
Iu consequence of the bad faith of the
Stantons, like d.fficulties have occur
red in the States of Teunssee, and Mis
sissippi, aud AJabaraa. The Gover
nor of Alabama has sezied the'roaa ly
ing in the borders of his State, and ap
plications for Injunction, and the ap
pointments of Receivers in the States
of Mississippi and Tennessee have
beeu made by him and granted by
their respective Courts, and now to
the end that Alabama may have all
the difficulties removed out of her way;
so that the road may be completed
aud successfully prosecuted, it was
necessary that the like implication
should be made in, and granted by the
Cwiirts of Georgia. For this purpose
the hill was filed, and the elaborate
and able argument held by the emi
nent Counsel employed. After a pa
tient hearing his Honor Judge Parrott
verv properly, as we think, granted
the prayer of the hill, ruc! Las appoint
ed Gen. Wm. T. Wofford of this conn
ty Receiver.
It is to be hoped that this great en
terprise may now be peAutted to
Work out its legitimate, grand results*
Any forcing of the road into bank
ruptcy, or further hindering or delay
ing its completion and prosecution is
much to be deplored, and we can see
no good reason, why, under the man
agement and arrangements of the
parties now in possession, all difficul
ties may not be indefinitely postponed.
We think we may, iu advauco, guar
antee that Gen. Wofford will use all
his energy and influence in that direc
tion, consistent with the duties of his
now poaitiou. The arguments of the
Counsel were all able aud interesting"
and the decision of his Honor, prompt,
and as we understand, satisfactory to
the Complainants, and the Creditors in
fi. fa.
A Riding Machine. We noticed
quite a novelty in town to-day. It
was a riding machine, consisting of a
number of hobby-horses suspended in
the air by iron rods, and made to re
volve with great rapidity by a person
turning a crack‘in the centre. Many
boys, and some men, were enjoying
rides on the fancy wooden horses at 1
ten cents apiece. When we first saw
it, we thought it was a model circus,
and then we thought it was a model
threshing machine, but it turned out
to be neither, and we hud no use fo r
it. Wonder if some genius can’t in
vent a machine, on the same principle,
to run a hobby in a strait line?
Wouldn’t it be nice to go flying a long
on a wooden horse, at the rate of ten
miles an hour!

The Mfell»od«t Advocate.
\ !
The politico-ecclesiastical Radical
sheet bearing the above title, says:
I “The Erprexs proves that the ‘Man
of Staw,’ is a genuine, live Secession
id(!Y' Secession, then, is what you
[are fighting, is it? We thought “the
colored troops fought nobly,” and
whipped that years ago! You must
jhe fighting the dead carcass of £ Seces
sion—a live ass kicking a dead lion !
It further s-iys: “If the Express is
; capable of answering us, why does it
not do so ?” We confess our inability
j to answer certain persons effectually,
exe pt in the way which the wise man
j directs.
The Advocate < alls us “thieves aod
i robbers,” says “the negroes were stolen
from Africa in the first place,” and
when we a*k who stole them, and
sold them to us, and what has become
of the money, why does it not answer
! us, if it is capable ?
The editor of the Advocate informs
us that he is at home, as much so as
any one in the State 1
“Home, home, sweet, sweet home,
Be it ever so humble, there is no place like
.homo.”
We hope he is well pleased with his
new home.
“Lives there a mar with soul so dead,
Who never to himself hath said,
This is my own, my uative land ?”
He says the Express will evidently
need his help for some time to come!
“Thankful for past favors we solicit a
continuance of the same !”
“Our calling,” he says, “is to guide
the simple and erring into the paths
of righteousness” (!)
None but the simple and weak would
f >llow’ such a guide, we are sure, and
into the ditch both leader aiid flock
are bound to fall.
The Advocate will be apt to with*
draw its rays of “Northern light’’
when the fleece shall be well secured.
It begs pardon, and thinks the Ex
press is not the sort desired in the
“mother Church 1” Says it ivants
‘‘ souud, sensible and pious members,
who will iive peaceably under the gov
ernment.” Is that the sort you have
been Hiking up, and absorbing ever
since the war ? If so, we prefer to
live outside, and will pardon you for
refusing to take us in, as you request.
It declines that “complexion is of
but liitle moment,” and if it was, it
“would hardiy kuow how to class the
Express ” That declaration, we have
no doubt, is true iu part-, but our taste
is a little different as regards complex
ion. We have no difficulty iu know
ing how to-class the Advocate,
“You may break, you may shatter
The vase if you will,
But the scent of the roses
\V ill hang round it still!”
The Summer is Ended.
The Summer is ended, and
“The melancholly days have come,
The saddest of the year.”
And yet, with all its melancholy as
sociations, we love the Autumn season.
Wo lo\e to behold nature in its matu
rity; we love to hear the music of the
Autumnal breezes which shake the rat
tling nuts to tLe ground, and gently
divest the forest trees of their crimson
robes. And we love to think that the
trees will be arrayed in beautiful ver
dure again, when the Winter shall
have come and passed away; aud we
love to know that we, too, sli ill be re
invested- with life, tho’ “we do fade as
the leaf.” and shall pass like Autumn
leaves away.
“Our life is like the Autumn leaf,
That trembles in the moon’s pale ray;
Ite hold is frail its date is brief,
Restless, and soon to pasiß away.”
How beautiful is Autumn! how
glorious its sun-sets, which tinge the
clouds with purple aud golden hues,
blended as the colors of the rainbow !
And how pleasant its moon-light
nights, as we walk abroad to enjoy the
balmy air, and to behold the silent
! beauties aud wonders of nature around
and above us! And yet, at such times
there will come over us
“A feeling of sadness and longing
That is not akin to pain.
And resembles sorrow only
As the mist resembles the rain.’*
Many fond remembrances are re
vived by this season of the “sear and
yellow leaf,” and many a sad heart
may find utterance in the following
beautiful lines:
“They are fading, they are dyiug,
Buds and blossoms of the past;
And the Autumn wind is sighing,
As they flutter in the blast.
Mournfully our hearts are sighing,
To the wind’s sad wail replying,
While the tears are falling fast.
One by one the leaves are falling,
Brown and withered, dark and sere;
In onr soul, oh ! thought appalling i
’Tis the autumn of the year.;
All the glorious past recalling,
While the leaves around us falling
Warn us that it is not here.
Where are now the tones, whose music
We may never hear again ?
Where the loviug smiles whose glory
Was like sunshine after rain?
Ah ! the olden, olden story
Conned from youth to age so hoary,
We shall yearn for them in vain.
How we cheriah every token !
How the mem’ries round us cling
Os the loving words once spoken.
Os the songs they used toeing.
Ah ! we kaow, by many a token,
All the flowers are crushed and broken,
Withered in their blossoming.

In the providence of Almighty God,
our brother, I. A. Thomas, has been
stricken down in the midst of his use
fulness and active benevolence. We bow
in humble submission to this sad dis
pensation by which our Order has lost
one of its brightest jewels and brought
sorrow to his bereaved widow and
mother, deem it therefore proper that
we should offer them our heartfelt
sympathies; Be it therefore
Rrsolved, That, in the death of
brother Thomas, the Lodge has lost a
true and zealous Mason, the Church one
of its brightest ornaments, and society
one of her best citizens, a kind and de
voted- * husband and an affectionate
father.
Resolved, That we, as a Lodge,
deeply sympathize with his widow and
and sorrowing relatives, in this sudden
dispensation of providence.
“He rests from hislabors, farewell for a time;
Through the last ceremonials solemn, sub
lime;
Os that higher degree you have now passed
before,
PSWe must soon follow,imnst pass through the
door
Os death, into scenes most enchautingly
bright,
To the throne of Jehovah, whose presence is
light.”
Resolved, That the jewels and fur
niture of the Lodge be draped in
mourning 30 days and a blank page
upon the minutes be inscribed to his
memory, and a copy of these resolu
tions be furnished his widow and
mother, and that they be published in
the Cartersville papers.

SAMU’L F. MILAM. )
f@°*The horse-men of this city have
been much exercised in mind over the
reported performance of the famous
trotter Goldsmith Maid at Milwaukee,
on Wednesday last. According to the
telegraphic news received here that
celebrated animal has trotted a mile in
2 minutes and 17 seconds, which, if
true, beats Dexter, long the champion
of the turf, one quarter of a second.
It is but truth to say that there are
many persons iu this city, well posted
in the annals of the turf in this coun
try for many years past, who refuse to
believe that the Maid has made any
such time. Among the doubters is
Mr. Robert Bonner, the owner of Dtx
ter. Mr. Bonner, it is well known, is
an ardent lover of the horse. Indeed
if he were not such he would not have
in his stables at the present time so
many equine animals which, in order
to secure their ownership, he was ob
liged to pay out hundreds of thousands
of dollars. The forthcoming number
of the New York Ledger will contain
the following paragraph and extract;
“Some of the daily pupers have re
ported that Goldsmith Maid bus trot
ted a mile iu 2:17. Everybody knows
that she never saw the day she could
do that without running; but even if
she bai done it, it wouki leave her be
hind D*.xter, for he trotted, in the
presence of 20,000 people, in 2:16, al
though beaten in that race by a run
ning horse, who made 2:15, and there
fore got the record.”
She will never be Dexter’s equal, in
our opinion, until she can, iu a race
with a trotter and running mate supe
rior to her in speed, trot a mile iu 1:16
on the Fashion Course, and repeat in
2:l7.” —Spirit of the Times.
If Goldsmith Maid has really beaten
Dexter’s time her owner is a fortunate
man, for if she has done it once the
presumption is she can do it again.—
Some rime since it was reported teat
Mr. Bouner stood ready to give $50,-
000 for any horse that would beat
Dexter’s time in a fair, square trot of
a mile. The writer is authorized in
saying that, Mr. Bonner makes a much
more liberal offer. This offer is as fol
lows: Dexter with a road wagon aud
driver (weighing together 319 pounds)
behind him,, made a mile iu 2:21|
about a year ago. The wagon was a
road wagon, and the horse was driven
by Mr. Bouner himself. The owner
of Dexter says he will give SIOO,OOO
for any horse that will iaulj beat thut
time and under the same cirumstan
ces. If the owner of the horse that
beats that time is not willing to sell
his animal, Mr. Bonner will give $lO,-
000 for the pleasure of seeing the feat
performed. —New York World.
The Cotton Crop.
The Columbus Enquirer, published
iu the centre of the finest cotton region
in the world, still adheres to its opin
ion that the glowing crop will fall
much below three millions of bales.
In its issue of Tuesday last we find the
following :
“We heard, yesterday, of a Mhsco
ge * pi nlcr who made one hundred
auvl twenty bales of cotton last year,
who has this year planted the same
laud iu cotton that he did last year,
and who is offering to sell his growing
crop at thirty bales at the ruliug
price! Iu view of such facts as this,
and of the wonderfully snort receipts
as compared with the corresponding
dates of last year, it is not easy to
measure the faith of some men who
still talk of a crop exceeding three
millions of bales.” —Chronicle <fc Senti
neL
The Alabama and Mississippi cot
ton crop prospects are said to be un
favorable. The crop is variously esti
mated at from half to two-thirds of
1 .st year’s yield.
The Atlanta Sun brings as the !

A thoughtful observer on wo
men’s rights comes to their defense ve
ry effectively, as follows: “I have seen
women so delicate that they were
afraid to ride for fear of the horse run
ning away, afraid to walk for fear the
dew might fall, afraid to sail for fear
the boat might upset; but I never saw
one afraid to be married, which is
more riskful thau all others put togeth

and add to the many miseries of her
